TEACHERS! Apply to Donors Choose for AEG grants

The Foundation for the Tri-State Community and the Area Education Grants Advisory Board are pleased to invite Boyd and Greenup County teachers to apply for AEG funds for the '17-'18 school year.

While no separate application is required, teachers must post their innovative classroom projects on DonorsChoose.orgbetween August 1 and September 30 to be considered for funding. Teachers are strongly encouraged to wait until August 1 to post to avoid projects expiring before the AEG advisory board has a chance to review. AEG will award up to $500 per project, and funds will be awarded to the most creative and effective projects on a first come, first served basis. If applying for technology such as e-readers, tablets, etc., please emphasize how it will be used in a way that raises the bar for student achievement. AEG funds are limited, so not all projects will receive AEG funding.

Please help spread the word about this wonderful opportunity to provide additional classroom experiences for area students! If anyone has questions, please email Kathryn Lamp at (klamp@tristatefoundation.org) or phone (606) 324-3888.
